Good quiz bt as a frenchman i dont understand the lack of french data. I can give you at least a dozen cities that should be there according to the selection method... maybe citypopulation.de isn't that precise

That's weird, I just looked at the population of what looks like big french cities on Google Maps, to make sure that I hadn't missed anyone. I couldn't find any other cities than the ones Citypopulation gave me.

Maybe you could list them below?

How far off is Newport from making the list on this quiz?

Very far, I’d say, given there’s the entire Bristol Channel to cross, let alone the entirety of the county of Devon!

Blizzrd33 may have meant the one on the Isle of Wight.

Great quiz, but just a small aesthetic design flaw, the red text of Guernsey and Jersey and the shadow text is hard on the eyes against the blue backround.

Nice quiz! 2 suggestions - firstly Bognor Regis is almost always simply called "Bognor", and secondly only 5 (I think) of the English places are cities, so the title may want a little modification to "towns and cities" or even just "towns". Just slightly nitpicky suggestions as I say. Enjoyed it. Thank you!

"almost always" - I don't think I've ever heard it referred to as just "Bognor"

"modification" - on most JetPunk quiz titles, "cities" refers to both cities and towns.

Really?? Presumably you live some distance away. I did my teacher training in Bognor and in the town itself one almost never hears "Regis" used. Even living as far away as Kent I rarely hear people use the full name. It would be nice at least to have "Bognor" as a type-in.

As for cities, well, I realise a lot of people get it wrong but... they are getting it wrong!

A lot of these places aren’t actually cities! They are towns. x

Shouldn't Fareham be included? It's a large town. It's much closer to the sea than Eastleigh. Ditto Chichester and Havant.
